This unit investigates visual and literary relationships between field research and creative outcomes. Methodologies will be explored between such practices in both the humanities and the natural sciences. On-site exercises will enable the student to identify and apply different techniques and processes of undertaking research in the field, such as sampling, drawing, note-taking, photography, video and automatic writing. Excursions will be undertaken in a range of different sites (beach, bushland, landscaped sites) and will then be supplemented by developmental work in the studio. Students develop a proposal based on their research and identify achievable outcomes using media and techniques of their choice.
